Bramm Yards Fuel Tank Removal Program

Location

Kitchener

Project overview

Th Bramm Yards is a City of Kitchener owned parking lot in Downtown Kitchener. At eight acres in size, it is the largest remaining parcel of land the City owns that can be used to support future employment. The site is part of both the Urban Growth Centre and the Innovation District, which makes it a key location for high-density, mixed-use development and major office space. Following City Council’s approval of the Bramm Yards Master Plan, the City is moving forward with the next steps for the site’s redevelopment.

MTE's Involvement

As part of the site development plans, MTE was proud to provide environmental consulting services for the Site which included the decommissioning of historical underground storage tanks (USTs).

MTE oversaw the removal of two USTs with the approximate capacity of 45,000 Litres (L) each. MTE also completed confirmatory soil sampling to support the preparation of UST closure documents in accordance with Technical Standards and Safety Authority 2012 Environmental Management Protocol (EMP). MTE’s role included submission of technical documents to the TSSA to facilitate closure of the USTs in accordance with the EMP. Official closure with the TSSA was received in April 2026.
